Utah State RB Michael Smith Dazzles at Pro Day

There must be something in the water at Utah State.

Between Robert Turbin’s awesome combine performance, and Bobby Wagner’s offseason rise, these guys are putting out some real NFL talent in 2012. That apparently isn’t limited to the aforementioned players, as Turbin’s backup Michael Smith has just blown up at Utah State’s pro day.

Smith ran a 4.35 in the 40 yard dash, had a 10’6″ broad jump and a 40.5″ vertical jump. In case you’re keeping score at home, those numbers are off the charts. He also measured out at 5’8″ 207 pounds at an all-star game earlier this offseason, a game in which he was named MVP.

Smith’s biggest performance of last year came in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl where he ran for 157 yards on just 12 carries with two touchdowns.

When he posted those numbers, Twitter blew up with everyone saying their favorite sleeper is no longer a sleeper.

Yeah, right.

I have been following the draft as closely as anyone and I’ve not heard this kid’s name pop up on any list, never seen a scouting report, and aside from his great close to the 2011 season, I’ve not heard much about this guy whatsoever. So, for your and my viewing pleasure, here is a video of him running buck wild against Ohio in the Potato Bowl.
